Happy Monday, babes! If you didn’t know, I’ve been wearing Bombshell tape-in extensions for the past year and a half! I had a hair nightmare happen in January of 2016 and I basically got a chemical haircut. TRAGIC. So, I started wearing extensions to blend in the broken pieces and I can honestly say I think they did me some good! I haven’t gotten my hair highlighted since the previous said fiasco and the extensions make my hair look blonder than what it truly is! Therefore, I’ve been able to let my hair grow out and come back to life! I take my extensions out every 8-10 weeks and I wanted to show y’all how I style it all naturale!

I start off by blow drying my hair with this and this! Seriously the best blow dryer I’ve ever used and the spray protects my hair from the heat! It also really smooths out my friz! Before I start curling, I spray this all over my hair! It gives it a natural looking texture and makes my curls last longer! I can definitely see a difference in my hair holding if I don’t use it.

I start curling from the back of my head and I work my way forward! I like to alternate directions of the curl when I’m not wearing extensions. It makes my hair have that tousled, sexy look without trying too hard. I’m using this curling iron, 100% worth the splurge!

I then go to the other side and repeat the process!

Once my hair is completely curled. I spray this like I would a dry shampoo! I concentrate more towards the root, it gives me awesome volume and helps achieve the “piece-y” look.

I tease a little on the ends, I typically don’t tease my root because I already have so much natural volume! And VOILA! All done! This technique is a really simple and easy, it takes me about 5-10 minutes to style it!
